A love struck Romeo
Sings the street a serenade
He's laying everybody low
He's got a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight and he steps out of the shade and says somethin' like
"You and me babe, how about it?"
Juliet says "hey, its Romeo.
He nearly gave me a heart attack. Yeah well
He's underneath my window "
Now she's singin
"He la ,my boyfriend's back"
"Shouldn't come around here
Singin' up to people like that"
Ohhhhh anyway, what ya gonna do about it?
Now Juliet
The dice were loaded from the start
And our bets
And you exploded into my heart
And I forget I forget
The movie song
When you gonna realize
It was just that the time was wrong?
Julie
And we both come up on different streets and they were both the streets of shame, you know, they're both dirty, both mean!
Yes, even the dreams were the same
I dreamed your dream for you and know your dream is real, so tell me honey, how can you look at me, as if I was just another one of your deals?
Now you can fall for chains of silver and you can fall for chains of gold, you know you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything and you promised me thick and thin and now you just turn away and say: "Romeo, I think I used to have a scene with him."
Oh Juliet,
When we made love you used to cry
You said: "I love you like the stars above. I'm gonna love you till I die"
There's a place for us
I know you know this song
And now when you gonna realize that it was just that the time was wrong?
Julie, I'm so in love!
Now I can't do the talk
Like they talk on the TV screen
And I can't do a love song
Not the way you sung to me
I can't do anything
But I would do anything for you ohhh no
I can't do anything except be in love with you yeah
Now all I do is miss you
And the way it used to be ya know and
And all I do is keep the beat
I keep bad, bad company
And all I do is kiss you
Through the bars of this rhyme
When Julie
I'd do the stars with you anytime
Ohhhh Juliet
When we made love you used to cry
You said
"I love you like the stars above. I'm gonna love you till I die"
There's a place for us
I know
You know the movie song
When day we gonna realize that
It was just that time was wrong
Julie
A love struck Romeo
Sings the street a serenade
He's layin' everybody low
He's got a love song that he made
He finds a convenient streetlight
And he says somethin' like
"You and me babe,
How about it?"
